Discover a biblical approach to welcome individuals and families affected by disability as equal and vital members of the fellowship by reading Paul from a new perspective. David W. Anderson, the founder and president of Crossing Bridges, Inc., a nonprofit ministry, follows up on his previous books on how the church can serve those with disabilities in this analysis of what the Bible says on the topic. The emphasis is on practical, everyday implications of theology to life experiences and relationships. The author explores topics such as: • actions we can take to lend credibility to our Christian witness, such as focusing on compassion, hospitality, and Christlike character. • steps we can take to help individuals and families dealing with disability avoid feeling spiritually isolated. Paul does not directly teach about disability, but his writing highlights how Christians should relate to others with acceptance, love, humility, patience, and equality. Thinking theologically about disability includes seeking to understand the place and purpose of disability in general, and how to minister with persons and families facing a disabling condition.

Never before has it been so important for Christians to discover the answers God’s Word holds to our culture’s biggest ethical and social dilemmas. Every day, the 24-hour news cycle offers stories from around the world of unimaginable physical, mental and emotional suffering. Yet more often than not, these stories and the underlying problems they represent are reported with no suggestions for resolution. Can it really be true that there are no solutions to our world’s biggest crises? Joni Eareckson Tada refuses to believe it. On her TV show, she has interviewed scores of people who have faced life’s toughest battles—and emerged victorious! In Life in the Balance, Joni and her friends take on some of the most difficult issues covered by the evening news, such as street violence, abortion, autism, genocide and stem-cell research. But they won’t just tell the stories; they’ll dig deep into the Word of God to find real and lasting solutions to so-called “unsolvable” problems. This workbook, designed for participants in a Life in the Balance individual and group study (Leader Guide with DVD sold separately), will guide readers to apply the timeless yet timely truth of God’s Word to society’s greatest challenges.

Church should be a safe place, right? Then why do so many get hurt there? Ray Beeson and Chris Hayward combine their years of ministry experience to address head-on the elephant in the room: church members and church leaders hurt Christians. All the time. And the long-lasting effects—rejection, shame, despair, loneliness, fear—can be devastating. The authors have witnessed the rise of the “dones,” those who are just done with God thanks to scars from church. With first-person stories of hurt and loss, this book is a wake-up call for any who deny woundedness in the church but is also a redemptive message for any who hurt from church wounds. Leaders and laypeople alike will learn how to grieve over abuse, to leave unhealthy attitudes and patterns that cause pain, and to trust in God’s real, delivering work through churches that build up, not tear down. Thanks to the grace of God, there is always hope beyond the pain.

A book on God’s greatness that helps you to trust him, grow in faith and live confidently. What’s the secret to truly trusting God so that we can rest easy at night? How can we have the same faith and confidence as David who said: “In peace I will lie down and sleep, for you alone, LORD, make me dwell in safety” (Ps 4:8)? The answer lies in focusing on God’s greatness. When we consider God’s greatness, we usually tend to think about what God can do. However, this book explores 12 things that God can’t do. They all express aspects of his nature and character which we can embrace with relief, celebrate with joy and worship with awe. You will marvel both at God’s otherness and at how he became one of us in the person of Jesus. Read this book to grow in faith, live with confidence and rest easy at night, trusting in the God who never sleeps.
